John Carmack on Q3 Voting
by Redwood @ 9:21 PM CDT [Comments]
I asked John Carmack what people are able to vote on in Quake 3 (re: previous worklog post). I asked him for some clarification on what people can vote on. Here is his answer:
The only things I allow right now are \"map\", \"map_restart\", and \"kick\", but I can easily add anything else needed. I may want to have a couple levels of voting enable to allow you to lock down some things.
